Summary - 2 Holly Bank, Chapel Street, Kirk Hammerton, YORK YO26 8DA
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Large gardens and strong commuter links ideal for a sympathetic renovation.
Central, historic village location next to Grade I listed church
Set in the historic heart of Kirk Hammerton, this traditional three-bedroom semi offers a rare refurbishment opportunity between Harrogate and York. The house sits elevated next to the Grade I listed village church and provides kerb appeal with mock-Tudor detailing and period proportions.
Internally the property requires extensive modernisation throughout, allowing a buyer to specify finishes, reconfigure spaces, and add value. Ground floor rooms include a sitting room, dining room, kitchen with pantry and rear porch; upstairs there are three bedrooms and a single family bathroom. Two external stores (outhouses) offer immediate, useful garden storage.
Outside, the plot is a standout feature: long front garden rising to the entrance and an enclosed rear lawn with mature beds and trees. The outdoor space is currently overgrown in places but has strong landscaping potential and scope for extension subject to planning. Good broadband and commuter links — local stations at Hammerton and Cattal plus quick road access to the A1(M) — make this attractive to those commuting to York, Harrogate or Leeds.
Important considerations: the property is being sold in a condition described as needing full refurbishment, so buyers should budget for substantial works including modern services and finishes. There is a medium flooding risk for the area and parking is not defined on the plot, so practical arrangements may need planning. For families, the village provides a well-regarded primary school and nearby secondary options; for investors or renovators, the clear scope to add value in a sought-after village location is the primary draw.
